Outsourced hotel revenue management means I do the job of the revenue manager for you: I watch the comp set and pace every day, move rates and restrictions, manage the OTAs, forecast demand and report each month. You keep control of the hotel and see every decision.
What I plan around in Krabi: Railay and Phi Phi island tourism; Rock climbing and long-tail boat trips; European winter travel; Phuket overflow. Guests I price for: European and Asian couples and families on 4 to 7 night stays. Where I start: High-season premiums with minimum stays, and monsoon floors.
With my five-star hotel background, I help Krabi resorts and hotels manage European tour operators, Asian group travel and OTA demand, with rate fences for Christmas to Chinese New Year, a careful look at Phuket overflow on sold-out dates and a plan for the monsoon months.
The service in general is described on my outsourced revenue management page; this page covers how I apply it in Krabi.
I monitor your comp set and booking pace every day and move rates, rate plans and restrictions as demand shifts, room type by room type.
I manage the channel mix, parity and promotions together across Booking.com, Expedia, Agoda, Google and your own site, so cost of sale does not eat the gain.
On the higher plans I forecast demand by month and segment, build the annual budget and keep a 12-month pricing calendar tied to the market's real dates.
You get a monthly performance summary, a full ADR, occupancy and RevPAR report on Plus and Pro, and on Pro a monthly strategy call and a quarterly review.
“Krabi and Ao Nang are island-hopping bases for Railay and Phi Phi. Winter is strong, Christmas to Chinese New Year is highest and the monsoon is quiet. Guests stay four to seven nights. Many guests split their trip between Krabi, Phuket and the islands, so stays of four to five nights with flexible check-in suit the market well.”
Alaa Elhadi, revenue management consultant. Cornell certified, 18 years in hotel and short-term rental revenue.
The Andaman monsoon clears and the boat trips resume, so I open with firm rates, rewarding early bookings for the season ahead rather than offering opening discounts.
Christmas, New Year and Chinese New Year bring the strongest demand; I set four or five night minimums and keep rates high for homes close to Ao Nang beach.
Clear seas and climbing weather keep demand healthy; I hold rates steady through Easter and price Songkran as a short premium for Thai and regional travellers.
Rain and rough seas reduce island trips, so I lower floors, allow shorter stays and target budget travellers and divers who visit despite the weather.
Price Christmas to Chinese New Year as the top band.
Use 4-night minimums in peak season.
Price by distance to Ao Nang beach and piers.
Lower monsoon floors.
Confirm licensing for short stays.
No revenue manager
The role left or was never hired, and rooms are priced between other duties.
Results have plateaued
RevPAR has stopped moving while the comp set keeps learning.
More than one property
You want one consistent method across a small group without building a department.
An owner or asset manager
You want decisions made by a specialist and reported in numbers you can check.
Room count, room types, channels and the systems you use. I confirm the plan level and the monthly price for your size.
I study your market, comp set and current rates, set up the strategy and connect your PMS or channel manager and pricing tool.
I adjust rates, restrictions and promotions as demand moves, and manage your OTAs on Plus and Pro.
Step 4
You get the report against budget and last year, and on Pro we meet monthly, so nothing I do is hidden.
Priced monthly by your hotel's size, not per room. Core, Plus and Pro, month to month, never a percentage of revenue. Hotels of 200 or more rooms, luxury properties and groups are quoted individually.

|---|---|---|
| Core, up to 20 rooms | Managed pricing, run for you every day | From $650/mo |
| Plus | Pricing plus OTA, channel and segment optimization | By hotel size |
| Pro | Full revenue management with forecasting and a monthly strategy call | By hotel size |

Alaa was fantastic, going through each of the properties I had and gave great advice and actioned a great game plan. Would highly recommend for anyone looking to enhance their pricing strategy on PriceLabs. Alaa's experience goes beyond this which makes it very beneficial to have this holistic approach.
Property manager
Alaa helped me optimize my PriceLabs settings for my Airbnb listing and was very helpful and patient with answering any questions I had. He was also able to clearly explain why he made the changes he made, and it was obvious that he had a lot of experience in this field. I will definitely be back!

Busiest in Krabi: November to March, with Christmas to Chinese New Year the highest. November: The Andaman monsoon clears and the boat trips resume, so I open with firm rates, rewarding early bookings for the season ahead rather than offering opening discounts. Late December to February: Christmas, New Year and Chinese New Year bring the strongest demand; I set four or five night minimums and keep rates high for homes close to Ao Nang beach. For outsourced hotel revenue management, i raise floors and tighten minimum stays ahead of these windows and review pace every week, so the strongest dates never sell early at a shoulder rate.
For outsourced hotel revenue management, that is the first thing I check before taking on the pricing, because everything else sits on top of it. How the listing shows distance to Ao Nang beach, the long-tail boat stands and Nopparat Thara pier, since island-hopping guests choose by access.
Price by distance to Ao Nang beach and piers. Next: confirm licensing for short stays. For outsourced hotel revenue management, i start with base rates, the seasonal calendar and restrictions, because that is where a Krabi property usually leaks the most.
For outsourced hotel revenue management, in the quiet months my job is to protect the floor, close gaps with length-of-stay and last-minute rules, and keep the property visible on every channel. Quietest in Krabi: May to October monsoon. May to October: Rain and rough seas reduce island trips, so I lower floors, allow shorter stays and target budget travellers and divers who visit despite the weather.
Pier access ignored and monsoon priced like winter. I look for these first when I review outsourced hotel revenue management in Krabi, and fixing them is usually the quickest gain.
For outsourced hotel revenue management in Krabi, i manage channel mix, parity and promotions together, so the cheapest route to a booking is not the most expensive one for you. Krabi sells mostly through Airbnb, Booking.com and Agoda. March to April: Clear seas and climbing weather keep demand healthy; I hold rates steady through Easter and price Songkran as a short premium for Thai and regional travellers.
Ao Nang: The main base for boat trips to Railay and the islands; I price beach proximity firmly and lift peak weeks around Christmas and Chinese New Year. Klong Muang and Tubkaek and Krabi Town get their own treatment. For outsourced hotel revenue management, i set rates, comp sets and restrictions per area and per room or listing type, not as one citywide number.
Phuket overflow, Railay and Phi Phi island tourism and Rock climbing and long-tail boat trips are the dates I price first for outsourced hotel revenue management in Krabi. Late December to February: Christmas, New Year and Chinese New Year bring the strongest demand; I set four or five night minimums and keep rates high for homes close to Ao Nang beach.

They run month to month and are never a percentage of revenue. The scope of outsourced hotel revenue management is the same in every market, but the plan is not: in Krabi I would start from late December to February: Christmas, New Year and Chinese New Year bring the strongest demand; I set four or five night minimums and keep rates high for homes close to Ao Nang beach.
